Comparison of two blood pressure oscillometric devices: Datascope Accutorr Plus and Mobil-O-Graph PWA and conversion of blood pressure values from one device to the other
Conclusion
The disagreement in oscillometric devices can reach a magnitude that can be relevant for clinical and epidemiological contexts. The here generated conversion formulas may help to improve comparability. (Source: Blood Pressure Monitoring)

Inflationary noninvasive blood pressure measurement reduces the incidence of subcutaneous hemorrhage
Objective
We verified the hypothesis that in noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement, inflationary NIBP measurement using the new type of cuff (YP-71xT series, Nihon Koden, Tokyo, Japan) might be associated with a reduced risk of subcutaneous hemorrhage.
Methods
The study involved 30 healthy volunteers (15 males and 15 females). The blood pressure was measured by deflationary NIBP measurement + conventional cuff (control group), deflationary NIBP measurement + cuff (YP-71xT series) (deflationary measurement group), or inflationary NIBP measurement + cuff (YP-71xT series) (inflationary measurement group). NIBP me...

Comparison between blood pressure readings using a mercury versus an aneroid sphygmomanometer
Objective
For more than a century since its introduction, mercury sphygmomanometer (HgS) had been the mainstay for office measurement of blood pressure (BP). In light of the environmental and health hazards associated with mercury, there is a need to replace it with mercury-free alternatives all over the world. We aimed to validate the widely used aneroid sphygmomanometer (AnS) by comparing its BP readings against BP readings taken with an HgS.
Methods
We compared the BP readings using AnS vs. HgS on a sample of 300 patients of 18 years or older age admitted to a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan.
Results

Inter-arm difference of systolic blood pressure measured by automated double-cuff device is associated with arterial stiffness in patients with hypertension
Purpose
Inter-arm differences of SBP ≧5 mmHg have been associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities in hypertensive subjects. Inter-arm differences of SBP appears to be mediated by arterial stiffness. We hypothesized inter-arm differences of SBP ≧5 mmHg may be related to higher pulse pressure/stroke volume index, a surrogate marker of arterial stiffness.
Materials and methods
To obtain inter-arm differences of SBP (the absolute difference of right and left arm) and ankle-brachial index, bilateral blood pressures were measured simultaneously at the four limbs using an automated oscillometric device in p...

The usefulness of 24-hour blood pressure monitoring for the patients with atrial fibrillation: based on the variability of blood pressure parameters
Conclusion
ABPM provides data with similar SBP variability in patients with atrial fibrillation as in subject with normal cardiac rhythm. The ABPM on oscillometric method may be suitable for the atrial fibrillation patients, especially for the SBP evaluation. (Source: Blood Pressure Monitoring)

A pilot study of hypertension management using a telemedicine treatment approach
We recruited 78 men and 94 women to investigate if the proportion of subjects with well-controlled home blood pressure levels could be increased when treatment was guided by smartphone-based telemonitoring. All patients were prescribed one to three antihypertensive drugs. The Accumbo smartphone telemonitoring application was downloaded to the Iphones of the participants and home blood pressure information was gathered from semi-automatic oscillometric blood pressure-recorders by Bluetooth. The study physician adjusted the medications based on home blood pressure for 3 months. home blood pressure was controlled ( (Source: B...

The measurement of blood pressure by the linear method compared to the deflation methods differently modifies the pulse oximeter alarm frequency
Conclusion
Heart rate may influence alarm occurrence during blood-pressure measurement using the step deflation method. Using the linear inflation method, the risks of alarm occurrence and measurement failure are low, even when the pulse oximeter and blood-pressure measurement cuffs are installed on the same side, suggesting that this method is suitable for clinical use.

Measurement reliability of automated oscillometric blood pressure monitor in the elderly with atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusion
This review showed that the BP difference from AOBPM compared with the auscultatory BP method was less than 5 mmHg in the elderly with AF. This difference is acceptable in clinical practice. However, AOBPM compared with invasive arterial BP in the diastolic BP was a difference of 5 mmHg or more, and so its accuracy cannot be assured. (Source: Blood Pressure Monitoring)

Comparison of a noninvasive 3D force sensor-based method and the invasive arterial cannula in postsurgery intensive care patients: a pilot study
In this study, the accuracy of a novel noninvasive BP measuring system based on a three-axis force sensor is compared with the invasive arterial cannula taking 21 simultaneous measurements mostly on elderly, postsurgical participants. For the simultaneously recorded invasive and noninvasive signals, the similarity was high, the average correlation was 0.9001 ± 0.0588. The average differences (±SD) for simultaneously recorded systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressures were: −9.53 ± 4.69, −0.26 ± 3.06 and 1.25 ± 2.26 mmHg, respectively. The results of diastolic and mean arterial pressure satis...
